So I picked up a Super C for cheap and looking to get it running. There was no water in the oil and the motor was free. I popped the valve cover and turned the motor to TDC and the valves were obviously misadjusted. In looking at the head and valve springs it looks like the head has has some work done as the head was very clean and the valve springs looked new. I adjusted the valved and then thought that I would check the compression and I only get 30-60 pounds. I then pumped some oil in the cylinders and the compression did not change. I then for grins backed of the valve adjustment on cylinder #4 so that the valves were always closed and the compression stayed the same. It is looking to me like it either has the wrong valves or they are not seated. I have another head that I know is good and it would be easy enough to swap but I am wondering if anyone has any other ideas before I do that. Thanks
